Weight Loss Due to Respiration (\( L_{res} \)):

\[ L_{res} = W_p \times DML \]

Where:

• \( L_{res} \) is the weight loss due to respiration, in kilograms (kg).
• \( W_p \) is the weight of grain stored, in kilograms (kg).
• \( DML \) is the dry matter loss, in decimal form.

Dry Matter Loss (\( DML \)):

\[ DML = 1 - \exp\left[-At^C \exp\left(D(T-60)\right) \exp\left(E(W-0.14)\right)\right] \]

Where:

• \( t \) is the storage time, in hours per 1000 (hr/1000).
• \( T \) is the temperature, in degrees Fahrenheit (°F).
• \( W \) is the moisture content, in decimal form (wb).
• \( A \) is a constant, 0.000914.
• \( C \) is a constant, 0.6540.
• \( D \) is a constant, 0.03756.
• \( E \) is a constant, 33.61.
